I have been dreaming a lot since the last war of the world (oh well in my own world) with my greatest fear, which is myself and also with my so called “other half” and love. In this story, in my universe, in my dream, three of this character came to me very consistently until I am afraid to fall asleep. Because it is seems so real, that you woke up in tears. Well that is dream; some are good some are nightmare, and some are…… you know, weird.
Dream. Why we dream? It is one of the most unanswered questions of the history. Is it because of the brain activity happens during our sleep? Or is it because there is a telepathic force or is it because of the spiritual force send by Him or something else. We do not know that, and really do not know. All I know is that, everyone is having a dream maybe not today, not tomorrow, eventually it will happen. A dream is a sequence of images, emotions, ideas, and sensations that usually occur unwillingly in the mind during certain stages of sleep. Researches have given few theories about why dream happens, for example memory consolidation, emotional regulation, or even threat stimulation. Have you ever dream about falling, and then suddenly you woke up? Well, I have also dream the same.
People also always go to fortune teller, or even shaman to understand what the meaning of the dreams. Or even sometimes you having like, Deja Voo, as if that the event ever happen before and it feels like you already go through that event. Can we really predict the future? The brain and the mind, can it predict the future? If we really push the limit of our brain, can we really see the future? Have you watch the movie entitled “Lucy”? The story is about pushing the brain’s capability by using a new drug that was developed by a company. In the movie, they believe that if dolphins using the brain activity to 20% and can send wave of sound to other dolphins for communications, what if the brain of a human push it limits to 30% or even 40%? Maybe human can do telekinetic things or even more. Well, that is movie, but it can be real because the theories and thoughts are there.
A nightmare is an unusual thing that people do not want to experience but it happens to me every time. Post breakup totally sucks, it can change your thoughts of certain things, it can change your emotion, and it affects your mental. For me, I think that dreams really affected by our emotions; anger, happy, confuse, or any of it because from the emotion, it will give feedbacks or signal or anything that send it to the brain, and the brain will process it, which is I do not know until when and when you fall asleep it will follows you. I think that is why dreams happen.
